You accuse me of trying to turn this into a contest. In fact, it's you who started the contest by inviting comparisons and talking about how Minecraft did something "right" while Second Life did it "wrong." My point about how people have built Minecraft in Second Life isn't to start a pissing contest. I'm only trying to show you that you're comparing apples to oranges, because Minecraft is a game, and Second Life is a platform. Second Life doesn't have game-like features such as enemies because that's up to the users to create them if they want. Some people create game experiences in Second Life, but other people are using it to run a virtual business that generates real-world income. Why would a business owner want creepers attacking customers while they're trying to shop? "Lack of bad guys trying to kill you" doesn't typically come up when people are discussing the pros and cons of Android and iOS, why should that be an issue for this platform?
